Grief, that is a big difference. I get the sense that Homebase are never as cheap as you think they should be.

I wouldn't have bothered with either - use the hardware/electrical shops on Green Lanes. They're usually cheaper than anywhere... and nicer service :-)

"Usually" or "Probably" could have got it for £2 (or £1 or 50p) is not the same as that being the actual price or an actual item for sale.

There's probably somewhere I could get it for 25p, but that's just conjecture.

I'm talking about *actual* prices with real availability. I'm happy to listen to evidence.

Totally off topic, but noticed today that Yasar Helim are enterprisingly selling German lettuce ...
